Roofing Canvassing App for Orlando Teams
Central Florida isn't on the coast, but it doesn't escape hurricanes. Ian crossed the region in 2022 with hurricane-strength gusts and up to 20 inches of rain; Milton followed in 2024. For Orlando roofers, that means waves of wind-damage work across a sprawling, fast-growing metro — and a city that requires a permit for anyone knocking on doors. KnockKnockGO! helps your crews cover the ground and keep every door documented.
Why Orlando is a roofing canvassing market
During Hurricane Ian on September 29, 2022, Orlando International Airport recorded a 74 mph gust, according to the Florida Climate Center. The National Weather Service in Melbourne measured 13.20 inches of rain at the airport and 17.24 inches at Union Park.
The National Hurricane Center describes 10 to 20 inches of rain in the Orlando area, with major flooding across Seminole, Orange, Lake, Putnam, and Osceola counties. About 4,100 structures were damaged in Osceola County and 1,656 in Seminole County.
Two years later, Hurricane Milton brought 49-knot sustained winds and gusts to 76 knots — about 87 mph — at Orlando International, per the Hurricane Center.
Statewide, Florida law says an insurer can't refuse to issue or renew a homeowner's policy solely because a roof is less than 15 years old (§ 627.7011). For older roofs, an inspection showing five or more years of life left keeps the home insurable. Roof age is a constant topic at Orlando doors.
What reps face on the doors in Orlando
The City of Orlando requires a Solicitor's Permit for anyone knocking on doors to sell, lease, or rent goods or services. It involves fingerprinting at the Orlando Police Department, and renewals cost $10. Surrounding cities and counties set their own rules.
Florida's § 489.147 governs how roofers talk about claims. Contractors can't offer anything of value for an inspection or a claim, can't interpret coverage without a public adjuster license, and canvassers acting for a contractor — even paid non-employees — are treated as the contractor. Reps can quote the work and suggest the homeowner call their insurer.
The metro is huge and suburban — Kissimmee, Sanford, Clermont, Winter Garden, Oviedo — and storm damage can be scattered rather than concentrated. Crews need to see where the wind actually hit before they drive across the region.
How KnockKnockGO! handles Orlando roofing
KnockKnockGO! shows wind and hail events from the past 12 months within 60 miles on the canvassing map. From Orlando, that covers Orange, Seminole, Osceola, and Lake counties, so a manager can see which areas sat under the worst of the last storm.
Every door is a timestamped pin with a disposition, and each lead holds the rep's notes and roof photos. That record matters in a state that holds contractors accountable for what canvassers say.
Group and private chat keeps crews spread across the region connected, and the AI coach learns each rep's patterns so managers can coach consistent, compliant talking points. The leaderboard tracks door counts.
Leads and Jobs boards carry each roof from inspection through the build. Built-in SMS handles follow-up, and offline capture keeps pins saving when post-storm cell service is spotty.

Orlando roofing FAQ
Orlando is inland. Is the storm map still useful?
Yes. Hurricanes like Ian and Milton brought damaging wind well inland. A year of wind and hail swaths within 60 miles of Orlando sits on the map, so you can see where the wind hit across Central Florida.
Do our reps need a permit to knock in Orlando?
The City of Orlando requires a Solicitor’s Permit for door-to-door sales, including fingerprinting at the Orlando Police Department. Other cities and counties set their own rules, so check each area you work.
How do we keep a record of what reps say at the door?
Every knock is a timestamped pin with the rep’s notes, and leads hold photos. Managers can coach approved talking points through chat and the AI coach. This isn’t legal advice — review § 489.147 with your attorney.
Our damage is scattered across the metro. How do we plan routes?
Filter the map to leads and follow-ups, and use the storm layer to see which neighborhoods took the strongest wind. Crews can cluster their day around those areas instead of crisscrossing the region.
Does every package include the storm map?
Yes. Every package includes every feature, and you pick by seat count.
